About DLC Quest

✦ AI summary

Experience a hilarious platformer that satirizes gaming's obsession with DLC and microtransactions by literally locking core features like animation, sound, and pausing behind purchasable packs. Battle through two full campaigns packed with coins to collect, villains to defeat, and a princess to rescue while unlocking witty commentary on industry excess through 30+ mockery DLC options.

What happens when DLC practices go too far? An indie developer makes a game that mocks the industry and its foibles, that's what! Defeat the bad guy, save the world and get the girl! But first you'll need to find coins to buy DLC to enable animation, sound and even pausing.

Thankfully this is just satire and all the DLC is purchased with in-game coins. But consider it a cautionary tale for the future...

Key Features:

  • Two full length campaigns: the original award-winning "DLC Quest", and the brand new "Live Freemium or Die"
  • Platforming action! Coins to collect, a princess to save, a bad guy (or two) to defeat. You like that stuff, right?
  • Over 30 different DLC packs, each providing quiet introspection on the state of the gaming industry
  • Over 20 achievements to earn and make you feel reasonably satisfied with yourself
  • Online leaderboards

amusing game

I thought the game was just a typical meme game meant only for farming trading cards, but I liked the parody of DLCs—and, well, rescuing the princess.
